GTK Radiant 1.5 Crashes

[Aldro Koon]

Hey! A friend of mine has issues with his Radiant and I figured I'd try asking here incase anyone has a solution in mind.

 

"So my problem is that, everytime I try to open a map not made by me it doesn't open and gtk crashes. Though very few ones do, until they get updated in which they end up not working either.
I use gtk 1.5 and windows 7 64bit.
I tried with 1.4 and 1.6 both work and can open maps, but I cant save anything. It just saves, but doesnt, nothing happens. Also 1.4 and 1.6 are very buggy imo, I don't want to use em.

I tried using earlier versions of 1.5, same thing, but 2006 version gave me an actual error report before crashing."

1.4 failing to save since Vista is a known bug, but that was fixed in 1.6, so unless he's using an ancient version of 1.6 that shouldn't be a problem. If he's using the latest version, the right place to file a bug report would be the official bug tracker.

Thanks! I gave him my 1.6 version and it works for him Shame about him not being able to use 1.5 though as he is mostly comfortable with that.

In version 1.4 you should be able to uncheck the box next to "Use Win32 File Load Dialog" under Preferences/Layout and you should be able to load and save maps no problem. I have Win7 64 bit and use 1.4 with no issues.
